A Deep Inspiration for Yidden all over the World
June 13, 2016 7:02 am

You are an inspiration for Yidden all over the world and you bring to life the stories of Chassidim of old who even when in the harshest conditions never lost their emunah and continued to serve the abishter with all their being
May your suffering be the last and hasten the Geula immediately!!!!!!!!!!

Made a Bris mila in prison

On the left of SM. Is a Russian Yid (Yitzchok) that S.M. encouraged to do a Bris and than miraculously his emigration charges were dropped and he was let free to tell the story and give out this picture.
May his inspiration go free too! Amen!

united we stand

Reading the comments of this article makes me shudder, for on any other topic we quarrel. We need to look as Jews and as chasidim to unite around the torah and in the merit of that we should be zoicheh that Reb Sholom Mordechai should be released speedily.

Wow

This is inspiring me to more. BE’H I will act more because of this. Moshiach now.

It is hidden from us

B”H
I want Sholom Mordechai home with his family ASAP – that said, he is doing the Rebbes shlichus in a location that he did not choose and is making waves. Much of which we cannot fathom. Being a Yid in the American prison system is brutal, especially an outwardly Frum Yid. Yasher koach Rabbi Rubashkin, you are doing the Rebbes shlichus in a way no one would have chosen and you are more than living up to this task.

wonderful!

We need Moshiach now!!

All Yidden who reside in a prison

May your personal, and global, geulah come immediately!
May there be no need for mitzvoyim in prisons!

A beautiful yet heart wrenching photo this is. Rabbi Rubashkin is someone who I have not met personally. But each time I see his face I think of the family he has waiting for him…I think of his wife… This is not just an ordinary person. He is a true shining star. And in jail – he keeps shining his light…really something to think about and take to heart. If he is in jail, with every reason in the book to feel lonely and keep to himself…and this picture surfaces…what are we doing with all the comforts around us? How… Read more »

‘Todah raabah’ for the photo…amazing.
Sorry, you said: ‘harshly sentenced’ but i prefer ‘brutally.’ He’s not the only one suffering, his wife and children, as well as his friends. What about his ‘parnossa?’ What about all the good he did…hundreds of employees…’brutal and bestial’ American court system. America seems far from ‘The 7 Noahide Laws,’ and we know what strong words ‘Rambam’ said about this.

no words.....

Reb Sholom Modechai you are a inspiration to all may hashem redeem you from your bondage תיכף ומיד ממש!!!

Wow
June 8, 2016 1:05 pm

Everything Hashem does is for the best!

Zoche Mivtsaim = Free
June 8, 2016 12:54 pm

Because of that zechous of doing Mivtsaim even there, he will be freed before Rosh Hashana

heartbreaking

Reb Sholom Mordechai is a real Tzaddik. May Hashem send a yeshua bkoroiv mamosh.

Prison has no power over the soul of a yid
